The “Dinosaur Adventure Tour” featuring realistic moving large dinosaurs is being held at APA Resort Joetsu Myoko in Myoko City, Niigata Prefecture. This year, visitors can also experience stamp rally and fossil excavation at the venue.

There are 20 dinosaurs on display, including 11 species such as Tyrannosaurus and Pteranodon. They make noises and their heads and bodies move when people approach.

This year, for the second time since last year, a zone of herbivorous dinosaurs, marine dinosaurs, and carnivorous dinosaurs is being developed over the former golf course and a 1,700-meter round trip.

At the top of the course, a confrontation scene between Tyrannosaurus, the king of the land, and Mosasaurus, the king of the sea, is on display, and when the weather is nice, you can take pictures with Mount Myoko in the background.
